“Stephanie was wonderful. Before caring for my pups she took the time to come meet them and ensure she fully understood their needs. It was clear she was very experienced with high needs dogs as she approached my shelter pup in a way that was very respectful of her space and her anxiety. On Christmas Day she made room in her busy schedule to care for both of my dogs. She was very communicative and I felt great ease knowing she was taking care of them. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and you should too. Five stars.”

“Xinlin did a wonderful job with my cat (and my aquarium). Her demeanor was friendly, her timing was prompt (even though I'm lenient with timing windows), and she exudes her affection for felines. She followed my instructions, got some playtime in, and messaged me about any questions she had rather than act on assumptions like I've had other sitters do. Surprisingly, she took some wonderful photos of my cat in action, something that is hard for even ME to do. I'll definitely using her services again. Thanks Xinlin!”

“Annabelle took wonderful care of my dog, Abby, and my cat, Artemis, while I was away. Abby is recovering from a leg injury and has a detailed care routine, including medication and extra support getting around. Annabelle followed every instruction, made sure Abby received all of her medication, helped support her injured leg when needed, and cleaned up after her outside. She also made sure both pets always had clean food and water bowls, gave them plenty of attention and affection, and left everything neat and organized. When I got home, both Abby and Artemis were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Throughout the entire stay, Annabelle was incredibly responsible, responsive, and dependable. She kept me updated, replied quickly to messages, and paid attention to all of the little details. Caring for an injured dog takes extra patience and compassion, and she handled Abby’s recovery with genuine care. She treated my pets like they were her own, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Annabelle truly went above and beyond, and I would absolutely trust her with Abby and Artemis again without hesitation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter.”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own, all with completely different personalities, so I’m used to adapting to each dog’s needs. One has total grandma energy and just wants a calm comfy day, another is super independent and honestly acts more like a cat, and my third dog is blind so I’m very attentive and patient with routines and safety. I do twice daily feedings, daily walks, beach walks, and trail runs for high energy dogs, but I’m also just as happy staying in and giving calm companionship to dogs that prefer to relax. I’m a college athlete home for the summer, so I can keep up with super active dogs, but I’m also basically a professional nap partner for the couch potato ones. As a college athlete home for the summer, I have a pretty active and flexible routine that revolves around caring for my own dogs and yours. Daily walks, feedings, outdoor time, and exercise are already part of my schedule, whether that’s beach walks, trail runs, or just hanging out at home with calmer dogs. I’m used to planning my days around pets’ routines and making sure they get consistent attention, activity, and care. I try to make pets feel as comfortable as possible by keeping them on the routine they already know. I pay attention to feeding schedules, walks, energy levels, and little things about their personality and behavior. Having a blind dog myself made me really attentive and patient, especially when it comes to safety and creating a calm environment. I also know from my own dogs how much pets can miss their people when they’re away, so I try to give them extra attention, comfort, and company so they feel less stressed and more at ease. I love taking active dogs on walks, beach trips, or trail runs, but I’m also completely fine hanging out with dogs that just want a chill day and someone to nap next to. I’m very aware on walks, careful around other dogs, and overall just try to make pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away.

About: Experience dog sitter/walker, willing to treat your fur baby with the love and respect I would my own! I previously worked with multiple clients in the Boston area before I moved back to my home town. When the move happened I had to put that all on hold. Now, that I have much more free time I would like to start back up again! Growing up I was surrounded by pets, we had dogs, cats, hamsters, you name it. For years I’ve been sitting family and friends pets, not only to help them out but because I enjoy it! I’m very flexible with you and your pets needs. If you are more comfortable we can meet prior, so we can all be acquainted! I let all animals on the furniture so, please if you don’t allow this, let me know!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I’m very comfortable with different personalities, from shy or nervous pets to high-energy dogs and curious kittens, and I’m patient in giving them time to warm up. Because I grew up with pets, I’m used to handling daily routines like feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, and playtime, as well as noticing small behavioral changes that might signal stress or discomfort. Your pets will be treated like part of my own family while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day to give pets attention and care. I’m able to offer frequent potty breaks, play sessions, and cuddle time, and I make sure they get plenty of mental and physical stimulation so they’re not bored or lonely while you’re away. I have a private dog park and a larger public park, giving dogs in my care instant access to safe, controlled outdoor play without car trips. The private park means no crowds or unknown dogs—just a secure, clean space for leashed walks to the gate, off-leash fun (if approved), and supervised exercise tailored to their needs.​ My home is fully pet-proofed with secure fencing, no hazards, and constant supervision since I work from home. Pets get frequent potty breaks, stimulation, and a calm environment, always leashed outside and following your rules for ultimate safety and trust.

About: I am a dog lover who has dogs my whole adult life. I have many friends and neighbors with dogs of all sizes that I have spent time with and babysat as needed! I am an elementary teacher with availability on weekends and during the summer I have much greater daily availability. I have a 5 year old friendly and submissive lab mix. My dog likes to play at times, but at other times wants to have her space. Our house is like a home away from home for visiting pets!! I have a large fenced in yard and a very friendly 5 year old lab mix who is always looking to meet and welcome new friends. I am an avid walker and used to walking 2 dogs at time.

About: As a proud dog owner myself, I bring genuine love and energy to every pet I care for. I understand how important your fur baby is to you, and I treat every dog like my own — with patience, attention, and lots of playtime. Your pup is in great hands! I work part-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility throughout the day to give your pup the attention they deserve. I’m available midday and afternoons, making me a great fit for dogs who need midday check-ins or walks. I live in a cozy 1-bedroom apartment with my own friendly, socialized dog — so your pup will always have a playmate! I keep a safe, pet-proofed space and treat every dog like family.

About: Hi! My name is Katherine, and I live in a cozy home in Lowell, in a neighborhood filled with parks and beautiful walking paths. I’m very excited to start caring for more dogs and giving them all the love and attention they deserve! I’ve cared for dogs belonging to friends and family, and I currently have a playful 1 year old dog. As a responsible and caring dog lover, I always follow any instructions you have for your pet. I love going on walks, giving lots of cuddles, and making sure your dog feels happy, safe, and at home.

Hablo español 😁 I currently work from 7am to 2pm M-F I am available after 2:30pm every day I am available during the weekends and all holidays. And overnight as needed I have a fenced small backyard, we also have plenty of space at home, I currently have a 1 year old puppy and I don’t have kids on my own.

About: I've been pet sitting for friends and family for years and love it, so I've made it formal through Rover. I'm reliable, organized, and genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I have a background working with dogs, cats, small animals, and exotics (frogs, ferrets, birds, hamsters, mice, and more). Red Cross Pet First Aid certified as of 6/13/26. My own cat, Juniper, is part of the household, so I'm practiced at multi-pet dynamics, including with both cats and dogs. I have a large fenced yard and flexible space to accommodate different comfort levels between animals. Pet sitting fits naturally into my life. I work full-time but I'm selective about bookings and plan in advance. I typically board one family at a time and keep concurrent bookings minimal (2 pets max) so I can give full attention. I have a standing commitment Wednesday evenings in the Fall and Spring for only a couple hours and work around it when needed. Saturdays vary week to week, and I'm flexible about drop-in visits around my schedule, but will confirm with pet parents in advance. The key is advance planning. I ask for at least a week's notice whenever possible so both of us can prepare. I turn down bookings if there's a genuine conflict that week rather than overcommit. In my home (boarding): I have a large fenced yard, climate-controlled space, and the ability to section off areas if animals need separation for comfort. My own cat, Juniper, is here, so I manage multi-pet dynamics carefully. I watch for stress signals and adjust setup as needed. Routines are consistent (feeding times, potty breaks, exercise), and I monitor behavior closely for anything unusual. I'll provide updates and photos to set your mind at ease while you're away from your pet. In your home (drop-ins): I'll follow your instructions—feeding schedules, medication, play preferences, access restrictions. I'll check in, take photos/notes for updates, and flag any concerns immediately. Always: Red Cross Pet First Aid certified. If something feels off such as a behavior change, health concern, stress, I share as soon as I notice. As a pet owner myself, I treat you and your pet like I'd want someone treating me and mine.

About: I have owned or cared for 4 legged friends for most of my life. Family and friends have had me care for their pets since I was about 12, but owning my own really made me love them. I am comfortable with pets of all sizes, but I have a special place in my heart for larger breed dogs and orange cats. I would love to help reinforce your dogs training, encourage socialization and exercise in settings that are safe and dog friendly, and I am passionate that animals are part of a family. I am comfortable feeding both dogs and cats, and have experience medicating both. I'm a stay at home mom with a kiddo who is in elementary school, so my schedule tends to be flexible depending on the day and school schedules. Please be aware that if a visit or walk is scheduled on a day that there is no school, (such as a holiday or vacation), or a time that school is not in session (half days, weekends, or after school hours) my daughter may join me. I love going for walks and exploring new areas, but can also happily cuddle a furry friend. I am able to feed, pick up after, and care for animals with confidence. I am comfortable taking instruction and will do my absolute best to make sure that you are happy with my visit with your furry family member. I don't worry about bigger dogs, they're just more to love! Meeting a new dog prior to the first visit is a requirement for my services.

About: I’ve had my dog for 6 years since she was a puppy. She is house trained and is trained to be out without a leash. She is great with children and other dogs. I’m currently a college student so I have 1-2 classes a day with breaks in between. My classes are only 1-2.5 hours and don’t consume too much of my time. I have a huge fenced in your with more than enough space for a big dog to run around and play and release any stored up energy they might have. I also live in a nice quiet neighborhood that is perfect to go on walks.

About: I work full time during the day. Usually home no later than 4pm. I have a 4 yr old labradoodle that loves playing ball but is very timid and skittish so I have plenty of experience with dogs who are also the same Way. I will always make sure your dogs needs come first and treat them like my own. I have experience administering all types of medications as I have a veterinary background and have had a dog with a lot of health issues. I have experience with timid and dog reactive dogs. I currently have the Flex-ability to work from home 3x a week. As well as getting into work early and home by 2pm. Leaving lots of time to be able to enjoy the afternoon for walking not just my own dog but others as well. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. Going out for walks/potty breaks every 3-4 hours. Lots of play time and letting them get to know. It always the key to take it slow and steady. Having a rescue dog myself, we always are patient and cautious as she gets scared and skiddish of things very easily.

Alyssa always goes above and beyond for our many animals. We recently had a medical emergency with one of our guinea pigs the day before we left for a trip and Alyssa did a wonderful job giving her multiple daily meds and keeping us updated on her condition. She even gave her a much needed bath and gave all of our guinea pigs nail trims! We are so thankful to have a sitter who truly cares about our babies.

Sonya started doing drop-ins with our pups and we are so glad we have her. They are so happy to see her, I absolutely adore getting their report cards. It brings me peace of mind to not have to worry about my dogs while I’m at work. My husband and I have decided she missed her calling as a photographer because she gets the best pictures of our boys.

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.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Lowell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Lowell on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 9,728 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lowell. 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 Lowell 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.

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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

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.

To find sitters in Lowell with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lowell. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
