I'm available the most on weekends but would be up to dog walking/house sitting on weeknights as well. Hope to hear from you soon, please don't hesitate to reach out! I’m always exercising and being active which fits perfectly into my routine. I look forward to new clients to walk and to incoporate into my schedule.

“Emily was an amazing cat sitter! She came to our home twice a day for our 5 day trip. Our cats were very well taken care of! One of our cats, Katie, required special medication and Emily administered her medication perfectly. Our cats were very healthy and in great spirits when we returned. We felt very comfortable and was able to enjoy our trip after leaving our fur babies with Emily. She was very communicative via Rover app and text and sent us photos and updates every day. We will be rebooking with Emily again soon!!!!”

About: I grew up around animals of all sorts. My grandfather had huge hunting hounds and cats. My other grandfather had a german shepherd who would pull my sled in winter. When I was seven years old I helped my father train our puppy. I love animals they always have a way of making me smile. I’m a stay at home mom to two wonderful children who are both at school. I’d love to take care of your pet with all the spare time I have. I love going on long walks and letting the dog sniff as much as they want. I love throwing the ball for them to chase and I love petting their soft fluffy fur. For my long coat friends I’d love to comb it out and make it shine.

Cora and I are very thankful. I’m definitely going to rebook with her. Thanks Daya!”
About: I have taken care of pets of all kinds throughout my life. From dogs and cats to snakes and chinchillas, I have experienced it all! I have over a year of experience working alongside a wonderful pet sitting company that has taught me everything there is to know about our furry friends. Before that, I have experience with my own pups! I've had Chihuahuas, a Husky, and a Jack Russel, so there is truly no task I am unwilling to take on. I am always trying to grow and educate myself on behavior in pets! I currently work at a Pet Servicing company, working weekdays from 10am-3pm. I am fully available on the weekends, and anytime in the morning or nights on weekdays. That leaves plenty of time to hang out and care for your beloved furry family!

If there is any specific tasks you need me to perform around the household, I will always be willing to help!

About: Having dogs my entire life has granted me the luxury of being comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. Currently, my mother and I are sharing custody of a rescue mutt. I'm also the go to dog sitter for my brother's pit bull terroir & lab. Just like us, our dogs need food, water, exercise and lots of love! I am happy to assist you with all of this and more. Including giving pet medications from pills to insulin. Open to discussing other needs not listed here! I currently work Monday through Thursday 8-5pm & Fridays 8-3pm in a dog friendly office. I do have an hour lunch break and am willing to use that time to stop by. My after work activities are extremely flexible! Weekends are also flexible and am happy to discuss overnight stays/boarding needs. If you're looking to board, please note that my condo association does not allow for 'large' dogs. There is also a 2 dog max. However, being comfortable with dogs of all sizes, I am sure we can work with my condo limits to meet your needs. If you have a fenced in yard I'm happy to throw a ball around or if your dog loves to destroy plush toys, happy to clean that up too! Hiking is also a personal love of mine and great for high energy pups.

Lily is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her more highly, she always takes such wonderful care of our girls. She even braved the blustery weather to make sure they were safe, happy, and well cared for. Knowing they were in such kind, capable, and caring hands gave us tremendous peace of mind when we needed it most. Lily went above and beyond, and we are so grateful for her thoughtfulness, reliability, and genuine care. She is truly a standout sitter, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pets. Thank you, Lily, for taking such wonderful care of our girls!
Philip dropped in to take care of our dog, Peanut, for an hour while we were away for the night. He was on time and sent photos of Peanut as requested. He also followed the instructions for feeding Peanut dinner and providing him with his walk. We are giving 4/5 stars because unfortunately when Philip left our house, he locked our front door handle along with the padlock. We had only instructed him to lock the padlock with the code we provided, so we were locked out of the house when we returned. We understand Philip was trying to be careful, but we ended up waiting 1.5 hours at midnight to for an emergency locksmith to let us into our home, so we were left wishing Philip had stuck to the instructions we provided. That being said, we appreciated the good care he provided for Peanut.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lowell is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $44 per visit. 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.
As of October 2026, there are 9,707 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lowell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Lowell 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
