“Paws and crab were well cared for. Suzie had a lot of meds to feed our senior cat. I had wonderful pictures of them playing. This was a twice a day commitment so I was very happy with Suzies time and care. I would highly recommend her.”
“Courtney is great. She go along great with our energetic puppy! She sent so many cute photos of our dogs and a report of how the day went. We look forward to having her babysit our dogs again!!”
“Michael, is great! He is punctual and has a great attitude. He watched our 150 plus pound Cane Corso. He kept it simple when some would tend to complicate caring for such a large breed. Michael made it work for us and he made my trip more enjoyable. He did a great job!”
“Tom was a fantastic sitter! He was reliable, communicative, friendly, and flexible throughout the process. He also got along great with our cat and sent helpful photos from his visits. We would absolutely hire him again.”
“Nina is a real professional who took very good care of our dog, Ceci. This is our first time working with Nina and she has earned our trust. Our dog requires a very specific and somewhat complicated routine for her diet and medication, which Nina administered perfectly. Just as important, Nina worked flexibly with our house-sitter to be there on time as planned for walks and exercise in the yard.”

They will be able to sleep wherever they would as if in their own home. Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs all of my life. As a child, I had a cockapoo who passed away when he was 15 yrs old. Then while I college, I rescued a collie pup from the pound. Athena was with me until she could no longer walk at the age of 13.5. My past two dogs, unfortunately had lyphoma..one was a scottish terrier who passed at the age of 3 and the other was a wheaton terrier who passed at the age of 4.5. After this terrible experience of losing 2 dogs at such a young age, our family steered away from the terrier breed as they are prone to cancer. Our bouncing beardies have brought so much joy and love to our lives... About my yard Our yard is large, and completely fenced in! It’s like having our own doggie park in a safe environment. My experience administering medication Administering medications is not a problem. Over the years, I have administered pills, drops and liquid medicines, and injections to our animals for various reason You dog will always be supervised while in our care. There is someone always at home to care for the visiting dogs. They will never be left alone . We have a fenced in yard to keep your pup safe. They are always supervised while outside for safety . Pet safety is our number one priority while in our care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lynnfield
Courtney is absolutely fantastic with our puppy! She is so thoughtful, patient, and caring, and we always look forward to the wonderful photo updates during her walks. Knowing our puppy is in such great hands gives us complete peace of mind. We couldn't ask for a better dog walker
Lauren was fabulous! My dog loved her! She was very responsible and did everything I asked her to do. She sent me pictures everyday which I really appreciated. I’ve already recommended her to some of my friends. I’m trying to think of some other places to go so I can use her again. Even my elderly neighbor loved her because she took the time to talk with him.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lynnfield 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 Lynnfield 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.

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.

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.
