About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—not just as pets, but as my passion and my career. I’ve spent my entire professional life caring for animals, starting with volunteering at an animal shelter, then working at an aquarium, and now working professionally in veterinary care. I also majored in Biology, which gave me a deeper understanding of animal health, behavior, and wellbeing. I’ve been lucky enough to share my home with all kinds of pets over the years, including dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs, and both freshwater and saltwater fish. I truly love them all! Whether they have fur, fins, scales, or a shell, I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your animals with the same patience, kindness, and attention I give my own. For me, caring for pets isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve loved and dedicated my life to. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. I can easily fit in walks, feeding, check-ins, medication, and plenty of quality time. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or visiting them in yours, I treat them like family. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll follow their routine, give them plenty of attention and affection, and make sure they get the walks, playtime, enrichment, and companionship they enjoy. I truly love getting to know each pet—their personality, favorite things, and even their funny little quirks. Leaving your pet with someone is a big act of trust, and I don’t take that lightly. My goal is for your pets to feel happy, cared for, and loved, and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
“Ivan is an excellent dog sitter. He obviously loves dogs and he was attentive, calm, and thoughtful in his care. This was my first time using a dog sitter for taking my dog for walks, and I couldn't have gotten luckier in choosing Ivan to take my dog to the park and care obout my pet. Ivan takes the responsibility seriously and understands my dog behavior rather than treating it as a checklist. My dog usually has the anxieties. Ivan found the way to calm my dog and communicate with wonderful care. After couple walks withIvan my dog is very excited, waiting for Ivan to come and go to the park. Ivan isd professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with throughout. I felt confident leaving my dog in his care and would not hesitate to book Ivan again. I am highly recommend Ivan service.”
“Chelsea was great communicating and sharing updates. Our poodle was initially shy, and she was very patient and caring until he got comfortable. We’ll definitely have her check on and walk our dog again. Highly recommend her.”
“Had a great experience! Angelina was punctual, friendly, and took my pup on a nice 30-minute walk. Everything went smoothly, and my dog came back happy and relaxed. Highly recommend!”

About: Hello -- We're Renee & Renee. We have one very well behaved canine and while his disposition (and food motivation) has a lot to do with it - we like to think of ourselves as a good trainer. I have lots of love for doggies of all breeds, sizes, etc. We work together to care for your animals: drop ins, feeding, walking, dog-sitting, day care - you name it! One of us is always home with the animals while we watch them. Let me know your pet's quirks and foibles - and we can see if we might be good fit for you! I have a very flexible WFH business so I have lots of time to dedicate to doggy play dates, feedings, walking, and more. If we agree to it - we can do it. We live in a large home in Worcester, MA. I am able to take your dogs on walks in your neighborhood or in a nearby park. If you need me to feed your animals or play with them - I'll want details instructions on how to find the appropriate materials! If I am boarding your animal with me -- we'll want to download on your individual pet's needs, preferences, likes/dislikes.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Boxborough. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Boxborough. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
