About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 3 years and have experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I provide reliable feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and basic care while owners are away. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, lots of playtime, or a calm companion, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m a college student with a flexible summer schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. I’m available most weekday mornings and almost all weekends for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and routines. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to build trust with them. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Annie was able to do a drop-in visit on short notice for our two huskies and we couldn’t be more thankful. She was communicative and prompt. We look forward to having her watch our dogs again in the future!”
About: I've had pets since I was a little girl and even worked at a dog grooming salon for three years, which I loved. Over the past 3 summers, I’ve been on Rover and love my experience with animals and clients. I am still recovering from surgery, and we can discuss that when booking with me. I want to create a place where owners feel like they can reach out me and trust me when needed Hello, I’m currently a college student home for the summer. Back in April, I had hip replacement surgery. Over the past few weeks, I've been able to get back on my feet and move around a little more. I was looking to help any furry friends around the area that need to be fed or let outside. Unfortunately, I can't handle large, high-energy dogs. Please reach out, and we can discuss. If anyone needs help with small dogs or cats, I'm your girl. During drop-ins, I typically follow the owners' requests, which include feeding the animals, playing with them, spending time together, letting them outside, and refilling their water, etc.
“Our pup ADORES Ann Marie and I always know she is going to be in great hands. Thank you for the thorough updates throughout the visit and for beings such a great friend to her!!”

I have a flexible schedule and always try to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I also spend time playing with them and making sure they stay active and engaged. I currently have a cat and two Shepherd mix, so I'm very familiar with different energy levels and personalities. I always prioritize safety, follow instructions closely, and make sure pets are in a calm, secure environment where they feel comfortable. I work as a Chinese teacher just every Sunday afternoon. So I have plenty time to take care of your pets. I’m available all weekday. I have a dance yard and can provide big wonderful place for pets to play and relax. So I prefer care for pets in my home.
“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She became instant best friends with our dog. When I got home after a long day, Oakley looked at me with eyes saying "I had the best day ever!". Rachel is very nice, has great communication, and obviously a lot of experience.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and love spending time with them. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping a calm, safe environment. I’ll treat your pet with respect and care while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, so I’m available for pet care on weekends (Friday through Sunday). I keep a consistent schedule, so your dog will have predictable feeding, walks, and playtime. I enjoy spending time with dogs and make sure they get attention, exercise, and a calm environment while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and calm space for pets in my apartment. Dogs have a cozy area to rest, and I follow any routine or instructions you provide, including feeding, walks, and play. I supervise pets at all times, and I can send regular updates and photos so you know your dog is happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priority.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and for the past 15+ years I’ve focused on caring for rescue dogs of all backgrounds, personalities, and needs. I’m currently a foster with Last Hope K9 Rescue, where I regularly work with dogs as they transition into new homes—this has given me hands-on experience with everything from shy, nervous pups to high-energy and still-learning dogs. In addition to fostering, I work with Hudson Pack Adventures, providing structured trail walks and in-home pet sitting. This means I’m not just a dog lover—I’m experienced in safely handling multiple dogs, reading behavior, and creating a calm, structured environment. I also have training experience and am continuing to build my skills as I work toward professional certifications. I’m especially mindful of safety, positive reinforcement, and making sure each dog feels secure and understood. At home, I’m a dedicated dog mom—my dogs are truly my world. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and lots of love. My goal is always to give you peace of mind and give your dog a safe, happy place while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, so it fits really naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule during the week and can work with you to figure out what timing works best for you and your dog. I’m usually available for in-home sitting in the evenings (around 5 p.m., sometimes earlier depending on the day), and I’m happy to stay overnight so your dog can stick to their normal routine. I also check in throughout the day and make sure your dog is getting plenty of attention, care, and consistency. Since I spend so much of my time around dogs already, I’m able to be really present and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you’re away. Right now, I focus on caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re most comfortable and able to stick to their usual routines. I may offer care in my home in the future for the right fit, but my priority is always making sure each dog feels safe, secure, and stress-free. I’m very comfortable being in clients’ homes and treat them with the same care and respect I would my own. I also prioritize regular communication, so you’ll always get updates and know how your dog is doing while you’re away. Through my experience with rescue dogs and fostering, I’ve worked with a wide range of personalities—including nervous, shy, high-energy dogs, and multi-dog households. I understand that every dog is different, and I approach each one with patience, structure, and compassion. I’m comfortable with crates and crate training, and I’m happy to reinforce any routines or training you’re working on to keep things consistent. Safety is always my top priority—I keep dogs leashed on walks, pay close attention to behavior and surroundings, and make thoughtful decisions to ensure every dog stays safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Amazing! We feel so comfortable leaving our dog with Lucy, we don’t have to worry and we enjoy ourselves on vacation. We have used Lucy numerous times and she always exceeds our expectations every time!”
“Stacie was wonderful! She clearly loves animals and has a natural way of putting both pets and their moms at ease. She kept me updated with the cutest photos and thoughtful notes, which I genuinely looked forward to reading. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pet was in such caring and capable hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“Brittany did a terrific job of caring for Chance. She was diligent about giving him his meds, and spraying a hot spot he had each day. She noticed when he took some skin off his nose, and tried her best to keep his ecollar on when Chance was doing all he could to take it off. Thanks to her his hot spot is almost gone and he’s healthy and happy. She’s the best.”
“Caitlyn took wonderful care of my cat Tilly for the few days I was out of town. She was easy to communicate with and sent lots of photos! Would recommend and have her watch my cat again.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years and understand that every animal has unique needs and personalities. I currently have a 12-year-old Japanese Akita, a 13-year-old German Shepherd, and a young Highlander cat, giving me hands-on experience with both senior pets and energetic younger animals. Caring for my senior dogs has taught me the importance of patience, recognizing health concerns, maintaining routines, administering basic care, and adjusting exercise levels based on age and mobility. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds, including large dogs, and I understand the importance of safe handling, positive interactions, and consistent care. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, medication reminders, or companionship while you’re away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos during every visit so you can have complete peace of mind. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a part of my daily routine. I care for my 12-year-old Japanese Akita, senior German Shepherd, and young Highlander cat every day, including feeding, walks, exercise, grooming, playtime, and monitoring their health and well-being. Caring for pets has taught me the importance of consistency, patience, and attention to detail. Because pet care is already a regular part of my life, I can easily incorporate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care services into my weekly schedule while providing reliable and attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I make sure pets have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and exercise, and are kept safe at all times. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping everything clean and secure. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and photos during visits to give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away.
“Emily was great! She cared for our two cats while we were having a baby and was so flexible and understanding when we had to change the dates. She came on time every day and sent great updates. We are planning to use her again in the future!”
About: I have been a cat owner since i was 10, and adore all animals! I volunteered at the MSPCA, where I adopted our family cat who lived to be 18, and took care of dogs of all ages and sizes-puppies too! I work remotely, and part time right now, so I can easily add pet care to my routine. I am looking forward to spending more time with furry friends! I am careful to follow any special instructions for your pet, as well as ensure any outside spaces are secure if your pup has one for playtime

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bolton stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Bolton 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 .

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 Bolton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
