“Kate’s fantastc! She handled our admittedly very stubborn and shy dog with ease and even got a few walks in while we were on a week’s vacation. She sent pictures and updates and was very communicative throughout the whole process. We’d 100% trust her care again.”
“Jaylin was perfect! They came over before the stay to meet my dog and get a feel for my place, and they had an amazing time together while I was gone with lots of shared photos. Will definitely book Jaylin again and recommend to my friends!”
“Collin was great with our dog, Remy! He was very nice, professional, and followed all our directions. Remy is 85 pounds of pure muscle and can be a bit rough, especially with pulling on walks, but Collin handled her like a pro from day one. Super responsive and clearly experienced—highly recommend!”
“Kayla did a great job under difficult circumstances. She was available on short notice, communicated well, took great care of two Huskies in a brutal heat wave. Kayla took great care of the house, and afforded me the peace of mind one needs to have when you leave your dogs with a sitter. Thank Kayla - much appreciated.”
“Christina did an amazing job taking care of our babies while we were away. Christina is very professional and personable. She is a natural animal lover. She even took care of our bearded dragon. Also,our return flight was canceled, so Christina stayed an extra night. The house was spotless and our dogs were extremely happy. I would highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed”
“Dakota did a wonderful job pet sitting for our two dogs (and chickens) for an overnight visit. She was prompt, communicative, kind and attentive throughout the stay. She was able to administer prescribed medication and took great care of our home. We are so appreciative of Dakota and will definitely book her for future pet sitting needs. Highly recommend!”
“Fantastic dog/housesitter! Mikayla walked and played with my dog who was very happy when I returned! Also she left the house as clean or cleaner! than when I left. Great communication! Nice pics of my doggie and grateful to have found her on rover!”

I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way. 🐾✨ I’m available for pet care on weekdays after 5:30 PM and have full availability on weekends.

“Sam was fantastic!!! We got lots of updates and beautiful pictures. She spent lots of time keeping our very energetic dog active and even made progress with our very shy kitties. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
About: Lifelong animal lover with years of professional experience in doggy daycare and boarding! 🐾💕 I’ve grown up with dogs of all breeds and sizes, giving me hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. Your furry friend will always be treated like family! I’m currently a part-time medical aesthetician and college student, which gives me the flexibility to incorporate pet care into my weekly routine! 🐾 Spending time with animals is something I genuinely love, and I enjoy using my free time to provide them with the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. I do my best to accommodate different schedules and make sure every furry friend feels loved and cared for while their owners are away! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents, including feeding schedules, daily routines, medications, and any special needs. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or extra cuddles, I treat every furry friend as if they were my own! My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, trustworthy hands while you’re away.
“This was the first time Jay stayed at our house, and she did an amazing job! One of our pugs is quite the diva, but Jay handled her perfectly. She stayed at our home for four nights and five days, following all of my care instructions like a pro. Her communication was excellent, she kept our house just as we left it, and most importantly, she took wonderful care of my babies. There were a few small hiccups and a learning curve, as expected, but Jay quickly adapted and mastered everything. I would absolutely recommend Jay and will definitely be booking her again for future travels. Thank you, Jay, for taking such great care of Googi and Skylar—and for the thoughtful pup reports at the end of your stay!”
About: Hello! I’m Cassidy, a dependable caregiver with hands‑on experience across a wide range of animals. I’ve owned cats, dogs, horses, chickens, ducks, cows, fish, and donkeys, and I’ve provided care for pigs, goats, turkeys, and other farm animals. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication, behavioral support, and caring for animals from newborns to seniors. My background in social work helps me stay calm, organized, and attentive — especially with pets who are anxious, reactive, or slow to warm up. I communicate clearly, follow instructions closely, and keep you updated with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s wellbeing and safety are my top priorities, and I bring both experience and heart to every visit. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. I’ve spent years caring for animals of all ages, from newborn kittens and calves to senior dogs, horses, and farm animals. As a result, routines like feeding, walking, enrichment, and medication management are second nature to me. I’m consistent, organized, and attentive, and I build my schedule around providing reliable, steady care that helps animals feel secure. Safety is always my top priority. Having worked with a wide range of species- cats, dogs, horses, cows, pigs, goats, donkeys, chickens, ducks, turkeys, and more- I’m comfortable reading body language, managing different temperaments, and adjusting my approach to each animal’s needs. I maintain a calm, structured environment, follow instructions closely, and take the time to build trust with shy, anxious, or slow-to-warm-up pets. You can expect clear communication, consistent updates, and a dependable presence.
About: I’ve taken care of my roommates dog for the past 3.5 years whenever he’s occasionally out on trips. I have also been trusted to dog sit for other family and friends in previous years. I’ll make sure that they get a good walk in, feed them based on their dietary requirements given, play with them, clean up any messes they make, and will make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I work about 32-35 hours a week and usually have early shifts where I get out around 2:30-3:30pm, with the occasional 11:30-8 shift once a week. So I’ll be around to care for your pet before and after work! On Wednesdays I am unavailable due to my partner needing my car to travel to his workplace. I make sure that your pets are cared for depending on their needs and will keep a good eye on your dogs while outside in the backyard whether it’s fenced in or not. I love giving them cuddles during the beginning and end of the day and is comfortable with sharing the bed with them as well!
“Toysa is an enthusiastic and positive dog lover. Our two mini-dachshunds love her and she is patient as they jump all over her and attack her with kisses! Our home was neat and well cared for, and she did more than we asked her to! She responds quickly, sent pics, and our dogs were happy and healthy on our return. Definitely recommend Toysa!”
“Julie is THE VERY BEST! We have three older dogs who can be challenging. She gave them such loving attention and care. Julie always kept us abreast of their status with updates and photos. When we got home, our dogs were happy to see us, but they didn’t seem as jubilant as they normally do. THAT’S A TESTAMENT to Julie. THEY LOVED HER!!! And that’s what every family should want for their pups. Have no reservations about hiring Julie. We will be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Julie!”
About: I am a registered nurse looking for some extra work! (Other than being stuck in a hospital all day). I truly love animals more than people and would be honored to spend some extra time with yours:) I've spent most of my life babysitting and dog sitting for friends and family and would love to branch out! I work two days a week as a registered nurse. I have plenty of time on my hands that I'm looking to spend doing something I love! I have two dogs of my own that I pour my heart and soul into. I would provide loving and reliable care in any way you desire for your pets!
About: My love for exotic animals made me a zookeeper 20 years ago, but caring for pets and farm animals is my favorite. Happy to help you! I have a fully flexible schedule. I can be there for you during days, evenings, overnights, and weekends. I have a big sweet dog to keep your pets company in our home, or in yours. It’s OK if your pets would rather no outside furry friends though. I am happy to respect your preferences on crating/gating/free range, special diets/fresh cooking, walk schedule, basic obedience, snuggles, toys, and treats. Dogs of any size and breed, and pets and farm animals of any species will be well-loved in your absence. 💛

Katharine was an excellent house guest and caregiver for our dog Mellie! Communication was great before and during her 3 night stay in our home. Our dog was well cared for and we received lots of updates and pictures. The house was in perfect condition when we returned home and Mellie was her usual happy to see us self! We look forward to booking with Katharine again in the future! 4 paws way up from Mellie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Leominster is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $100 per night. 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.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Leominster walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Leominster maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Leominster 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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
