About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was a little girl from pups to seniors pups with medical needs. I am always the first phone call when family/ neighbors/ and friends need a dog sitter for play time/ potty breaks/ walk/ even cuddles:) Fun Fact… I have also volunteered at pet sanctuaries in Central America for days at a time with multiple different breeds! I am very excited to care for your fur babies! I am now back to school! MWF mornings are days that I should be able to do! if other days are needed I’ll need to know a little in advance;) I will ensure safety at all times with your fur baby and respect your home environment. If you have any trails/ places to walk around your house I would love to try it!
“Alexis was an amazing sitter for our 2 cats while we were gone. She texted us pictures and updates daily and completely eased my anxiety while we were gone. She even changed the battery in our fire alarm so our kitty would be less scared. I would absolutely reach out to her again next time we go on vacation. Thank you Alexis!!!!”
“Kami was very accommodating with my last minute request for a drop-in visit the next day. She arrived promptly and sent an adorable picture of my little ones who looked very content with their new friend. I will reach out to Kami again for future needs.”
“I could tell on Wyatt's meet and greet that Andrea was a compassionate animal care giver. Wyatt took to her immediate and by the end of the visit they were fast friends. I was able to go away with my mind at ease that Wyatt will be well cared for. Andrea sent updates and pictures with every visit letting me know he was okay. I now look forward to getting away more because I know my skittish rescue dog is in good hands. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you Andrea.”
About: I have been training dogs for over 30 years and am experienced in virtually every discipline of dog training. What began as a hobby quickly became a passion when I realized how rewarding it was to help dogs and their owners build stronger relationships. During my career with the Fire Department, I was selected to join the Special Operations Team. Recognizing the value of working dogs in emergency situations, I approached the Chief with the idea of creating an Urban Search and Rescue K9 Unit. With his support, I developed the program and began training alongside a master trainer who guided us through the rigorous FEMA certification process. At the same time, I attended a Positive Reinforcement training school, which gave me a well-rounded understanding of canine behavior and learning. The combination of FEMA standards, positive reinforcement methods, and real-world working dog experience provided me with a complete training philosophy that I continue to use today. I later became the Special Operations K9 Unit Leader and Head Trainer, working closely with FEMA evaluators and trainers while developing and maintaining high training standards for working dogs. Today, I apply that same knowledge to helping family pets, service dogs, working dogs, and dogs struggling with behavioral issues. My training programs are built around clear communication, trust, and understanding. I specialize in quickly assessing a dog's temperament, reading body language, identifying problem behaviors, and developing customized training plans that help owners achieve their goals. What truly sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs. Dogs naturally respond to patience, understanding, and consistency. My goal is to make training an enjoyable and rewarding experience for both you and your dog while creating a lasting bond built on trust and respect. Whether you're raising a new puppy, working through behavioral challenges, preparing a service dog, or simply looking to strengthen your relationship with your dog, I am committed to helping you succeed. Im a 24 7 dog person. Training never stops. A dog likes consistency and a routine. They know when its time to get up in the morning and time to go to bed at night. My life revolves around dogs and Training. Whenever a dog comes to me I begin with taking it to a quiet room, give it a message while feeding it treats. This method has worked for me for a long time. It helps the dog relax and begin to trust me. After that we're usually best friends.
“Quinn went above and beyond to take care of my cats while I was away. She communicated thoroughly when she needed clarification, played with them and took great care of them. Would definitely rebook. Thanks, Quinn!”
“Our pups love Montana! She took great care of our two girls and we loved the pics. We came home to two very happy and well-exercised pups. Thank you for accepting such a short notice booking!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 9. I’ve owned aggressive / reactive dogs, dogs who need a lot of management, sport dogs, working dogs, and other animals with special needs. My personal dogs are elderly now and need more special care and I conduct all of it. I currently work a part time job Monday-Thursday from 9-3. My weekends are generally free as well! Overall my schedule is incredibly flexible. I have a well fenced in yard and basement entirely dedicated to dogs! You can look us up at Angie’s pet care (Middleboro Mass). But our boarding dogs are allowed to be on the other floors with us (only when supervised) but someone is home majority of the day.
“Jen is a great sitter! She's taken care of our cat twice now and does a great job keeping her entertained. She's very responsive to text messages and is never late. Thank you, Jen!”
“Justine was very great with doggies. She had great communication and was very punctual. She gave the dogs great attention and took very good care of them. I would recommend her to anyone for services with their loved ones.”

No matter if your fur baby is a dog or cat, I will treat them as if they were my own and make sure that they each get all the love and attention they need! I also have experience with reptiles and fish, so if you need extra help with your other pets, I’m the girl! Thank you for checking out my page, I hope to hear from you soon!! I dog walk full time and my schedule is always flexible! Im available 7days a week between the hours of 7am-7pm, but I’ll adjust my schedule to work for you and your fur babies! I can crate your pets if needed at anytime. When feeding I always keep each dog in separate areas. Dogs are always leashed when outside
About: Since I was a toddler I’ve had dogs around me, growing up with Newfoundland’s (they are big!!) and German shepherds. I also have experience with other large breeds like Great Danes and hounds as well as small like Maltese’s and chi weenies! I love all dogs and exploring with them! I do work as a teacher so I will be available for evening walks as well as weekends. My own dog I walk daily rain or shine and will do the same for you! I have a chiweenie who is very friendly and loves adventures! We love walks- long or short! I understand not all dogs mesh well with others so my dog can always stay home from walks!

About: Had a 5 month old pup at aged 9 (also had a dominant cat) taught her basics and more over time until she needed medication due to her old age. Looked after friends senior dog which needed meds with food and their other dog that had special dietary needs including medication 3 times a day. House and dog&cat sat for friends that would go away to France for a long weekends I have plenty of time to give care and attention. I am not working at the moment and in between job maybe this is my calling we have a lot of space in the home and in the yard. We do not have any of our own pets yet, but we are talking a lot about them. We have a large 4ft fenced in grass yard and a large basement to allow for off leash freedom to play regardless of weather. Over the back fence we have active cranberry bogs with loads of open space and smells perfect for long walks. I am a fast walker and happy to cover 3-5 miles on a walk. Any fur-babies that need to stay overnight will be looked after like they are my own. I’ll send lots of pictures and make sure your pet is comfortable with as much attention as it needs.
“Linda watched our cat, Maka, while we were out of town this past weekend. She was a sweetheart and went over and beyond to make sure Maka was taken care of, sending plenty of pics and videos each time she visited. Very appreciated!”
“Jordan did a great job watching our cat, Cleo. Her daily report card was thorough including pictures of Cleo getting some pets which surprises us because she's usually a shy cat. We would happily have Jordan pretty sit again.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and they are so important to me; I have two dogs currently, one of whom is medically complex and requires several medications 3x a day to prevent seizures. I do everything I can to give my dogs the best life I can and am passionate about doing so for all of our furry friends! If I could adopt more dogs I would but my husband would divorce me! I’m therefore hoping Rover will help me make a difference for more dogs in the world while reassuring their human companions that they are in good hands! My current work schedule will allow me to have about 3.5 full days off of work every day which will allow me to spend some quality time with your fur baby and giving them the attention they deserve, whether that’s going on a walk or just giving some snuggles! I will make your pet’s safety my highest priority, followed by their happiness as a close second! I will communicate openly with you and do my very best to provide the best possible care for your special friend!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeville
Kerry was absolutely wonderful! She was reliable, communicative, and incredibly attentive to my pet. I really appreciated all the updates and photos—it gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She even went above and beyond even bringing in the trash cans and mail. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely recommend Kerry to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!

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 Lakeville 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 Lakeville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
