“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.”

“Stephanie is everything you want in a pet sitter: competant and caring, reliable and kind. My two English Shepherds can be a lot to handle - especially Scout who was a covid puppy nd is still fearful of strangers. Stephanie was happy to take the extra time to gain his trust and now, when I tell him "Stephanie's coming" his eyes light up and his tail beats fast. Molly is a more outgoing dog, but can be opinionated. Stephanie has completely won her over. I recommend her highly!”

About: As a lifelong pet owner and proud beagle mom, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your fur baby. Growing up with pets my whole life has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, and what makes each pet feel safe and loved. I treat every dog I care for like my own — with patience, affection, and plenty of playtime. You can expect frequent photo updates and a happy, well-cared-for pup when you get home! As someone who works from home full time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches — I'm always nearby for cuddles, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I structure my work schedule around the pets in my care, ensuring they get regular walks, meals, and plenty of attention. Your pet will feel right at home! I'm comfortable caring for pets in both my home and yours, though I prefer to stay in your home so your pet can remain in their familiar environment with their own toys, bed, and routine. I believe pets are happiest and least stressed when they stay in a space they already know and love. In your home, I treat everything with the utmost respect — leaving it exactly as I found it. If hosting in my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and cozy environment where your pet will feel comfortable and loved. I'm attentive to pet-proofing, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and always supervising playtime. Your pet's safety is my number one priority!

I'm available during the weekdays 6-10 and the weekends all day . I'm pretty easy-going get along with mostly everybody. Flexible hours and have a car. I could take care of two dogs at a time. Thanks I can take care of your pets after work and the weekends. I absolutely love pets. I lived with them most of my life and care for them. You own home I'll take care of your pets. I'll feed and walk then if needed. Playing with them as well. I love animals. Dog parks
“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!”


“Amy was great with our high energy dog. It was the first time we left him on his own with a dog walker, so we were nervous about how it would go. Amy gave us regular updates and helped us feel better about the whole thing. It could not have gone more smoothly, and we hope to have Amy hep us again innthe future.”

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: I have two cats, lily and Iris and they are my babies! I also spent a year dog sitting two sweet girl dogs in my neighborhood. I love spending time outside and getting my steps in, so taking dogs on walks is something I really enjoy! I’m a very caring person and understand that not every dog or cat is the same! They all have special quirks and things they enjoy and I love being able to cater to that and make sure they feel happy and safe. I am entering my final year of grad school and am looking to work this summer and sometimes during the year! I work at my internship during Monday’s and Wednesday’s. I am also taking a few online courses, but I am flexible! I can do drop ins a few times throughout the day :) When I’ve dog sat I enjoy mainly to spend the sunny days outside with a fenced yard so that they are free to get fresh air. When inside I like the pet to be in my site range in case they need to go to the bathroom or are about to either eat or get into something they aren’t supposed to. I have taken a cat outside one time and he had been on a leash within a fenced yard. My own two cats are indoor, though when it’s nice I open a window or door that is screened for them to look outside. I do not believe in using spray to punish or train cats. I think electric collars can sometimes help with keeping a dog in the yard but not always necessary. I am very alert on walks and accommodating play time outside with the weather changes.
“If you're scrolling looking for your next sitter... pick Rachael! She's the best... always flexible, easy going, and so good with my kitties. Even my "scared of his own shadow " kitty went right up to her for pets! A++”

I’m currently a stay at home mom so I have more then enough time to spend with them, my schedule is fully open for any need Depending if it’s a long or short stay longer stays will require more, more walking, feeding bathing!

About: Hi! I’m Molytha! It’s nice to meet you, and (hopefully) your furry companion! I grew up with three dogs! Each a different breed, from a small poodle mix all the way to a pitbull! (i love her so much) But despite that, I recently adopted my cat, Rufus! And I love him too! So not only will you be trusting someone who loves animals, but also one that enjoys the best of both worlds! 🐱🐶❤️ I’m a full time student with lots of gaps in between classes! I’m usually done for the day by 4pm at the latest and around 3 at the earliest! I usually have a class from 9:30-10:45am everyday but the times after until 2 I’m free! I have everything my cat needs and I keep a very clean environment for him! Lots of play space and some space for himself as well!
“Samantha was so great! The first time leaving a recently diagnosed cat with diabetes and she made me feel comfortable. She was a great communicator and sent pictures. She was so kind and patient with my finicky cats. I look forward to having her back again!”
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!

Lily is a godsend, she was able to support us on shorter notice and provide the best care for our beloved pets. We so appreciate her and look forward to booking in the future. She has such a gift for working with animals and takes the best photos where you can tell that everyone is having a great time. Many thanks Lily!!

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. I am so grateful for Sonya and our dogs are too.

Amy is absolutely fabulous, you will not be disappointed in the care she provides your babies. She is punctual, flexible, and ensures each pet gets the individual care and attention they deserve. Amy took care of my babies for the last several months when I started going back into the office, and now that we are moving we wish we could take her with us as she has become one of my dogs favorite people. I got nothing but 5 star service from Amy and so will you. THANK YOU AMY!

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.

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.

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 .

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.
