“I don't have easiest of cats. They don't warm to strangers easily. One hides. The other just get menacing. Brittany took it all in stride and took great care of them. I would use her again in a heart beat!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve not lived a single day without having one or two dogs in my home. I have such a special place in my heart for dogs and no matter what kind how big, how mean, or nice it is I will make sure it is cared for and loved as much as it can be. I work part time at a nursing home in Medway, but my hours are not extremely long, and I have the flexibility to leave when needed to care for pets if they are located nearby. During the school year, I am a student at Bridgewater State University, so I will primarily be looking for pet care services in that area. My classes end no later than noon each day, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings, as well as in the mornings when needed before class. When caring for pets in my home, I treat them like family. I love spending time with them, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention to make sure they feel loved and not ignored. My dogs at home and I spend a lot of time on walks and hikes. I also have a fenced in backyard where they can safely run and play. I am very comfortable handling larger dogs on leash and can manage any that may pull. When I care for a pet at a client's home, I make sure they have everything they need while I am there, like fresh food and water. I also make sure they get lots of playtime and attention, and toys to keep them entertained. I will ALWAYS follow every pet's individual routine and make sure they are comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.
“Keri is fantastic! My shih tzu Jackson is absolutely in love with her. Keri had even been known to occasionally bring him a little toy! Whenever Keri is scheduled to visit, I am confident she's going to take the best care of him.”
“Lucy was very kind and was easy to communicate with. We haven’t left our cats alone for very long at a time but Lucy made it easy with her thorough check-ins and updates. The cats seem very content and normal when returning home.”
“I highly recommend Salina as a pet sitter! She has visited our kitty boys during 2 separate vacations and was excellent at communication, taking photos, and even looking out for us (she closed our slightly ajar freezer during her visit!). Thanks, Salina!!!”
About: I have had pets my entire life. Dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits…I love animals of all kinds. My mom became paralyzed and I walked and took care of her 2 senior dogs for about 8 years until they passed. I gave them oral medication, cooked their food, walked and groomed them. Then she adopted a puppy and I took care of him as well as trained him. I currently have 2 french bulldogs of my own. One is a hyper little puppy and the other is a calmer 5 year old. I love caring for pets whether they are my own or someone else’s. I currently work part time in home care until 2pm 4 days a week. I am available most afternoons. My schedule changes if a client is in the hospital and does not need care those days which gives me the flexibility to pick up more last minute walks or check ins. I have children so I cannot work all weekend but i can be flexible and am open to them. I am open to walking your dogs in your neighborhood or wherever you prefer. I am also open to check ins and feeding dogs or cats. I will do my best to keep your routine with them if that is what you prefer. I would like to know a little bit about them beforehand and any preferences or habits they have.
“Nat was pretty great in taking care of my babies. She was also very accommodating when my flight got canceled, so I needed her for an extra day. I will use her again.”
“Brianna was absolutely perfect in every way :-) She kept our dogs fed, walked & happy while we were away, without us having to worry whether they'd be OK. She was bright, friendly, attentive, and just great with the dogs. I don't know what we would have done without her. We recommend her highly!”
“Rachel has been an awesome find! She is flexible and super communicative. We appreciate her attentiveness to our boy Moose and look forward to continuing to have her care for him!”
“Auntie Trish has been a life saver for our family! She is accommodating, responsive and always happy to spend time with our pups. One of our dogs is reactive and can be super slow to take to new people and she was his best friend by the end of our first meeting. Highly recommend Tricia!!”
“Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!”
About: Hey There! I'm Becky. I'm a mother, small business owner, and life-long dog lover. For my entire life I've always had dogs, but a few years my sweet dog crossed the rainbow bridge to doggy heaven. When that happened, my children started asking for a new dog, but I wasn’t quite ready. As an alternative we started helping others with theirs. It’s become an incredible journey for our family, and brings us so much joy! We’re happy to have dogs here for boarding. I only take ONE dog at a time, unless there are multiple dogs coming from the same home that already live together. I have two children (11 & 15) who both love dogs as well. However, my son is nervous around bigger dogs and certain breeds. For this reason, a trial visit is required. Dog sitting has brought an unexpected amount of happiness into our home and family. We get very excited with each new furry friend that we get to love while you’re away. I have a fenced yard and a cozy home. I allowed my dog on the furniture when I had him. I don’t have a crate. Whatever rules apply in your house are what we try to do here. Dogs can run free in my fenced yard or walk on a leash around my neighborhood and in the nearby nature trails. I run a small part-time preschool enrichment program out of my basement, in a separate area where dogs would not have access. During work hours I am generally able let dogs out as needed in a separate fenced area. If you are interested in having your dog stay with us, please feel free to contact me. We would love to provide a safe, happy home away from home for your beloved pet while you're away. Your pet will be treated as if they were our pet. We try our best to make our routines look like yours, creating a safe, happy home away from home. I live in a cute neighborhood abutting conservation land. It is beautiful! We use an organic pest company to keep ticks out of our yard and I keep my home tidy.
“Jill took care of our cats during a long weekend, making sure one of them got their meds everyday. She was reliable and completed reports with photos to make sure we knew they were being well taken care of. We would book with her again!”
“We are so happy we booked with Kerry! It was wonderful getting to meet her during our meet and greet, and we felt comfortable leaving our Labrador Retriever, Enzo, in her care. My husband and I were away for two days, and Kerry provided drop-in visits that included walks, feeding, playtime in the backyard, fresh water, and lots of great company for Enzo while we were away. She was so attentive and responsive throughout our time away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Enzo was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciated how thoughtful and reliable Kerry was. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like their own! 🐾❤️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Holliston
We had such a wonderful experience with Brenda! She took amazing care of our two cats for a full week, visiting twice a day and sending us daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond, not only caring for the cats, but also keeping our house tidy. We came home to happy cats and a clean home, which was such a treat! We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 11,179 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Holliston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Holliston 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.
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 Holliston. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 pet, 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.
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.
