“Kayleigh was great! Highly recommend her as a sitter. She took wonderful care of our cat Howard. She sent extra pictures and detailed updates. Howard takes a little time to warm up to new people, but Kayleigh approached him so well. They were best buds by the end of the week ?”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure their pets feel comfortable while they’re away. I’m responsible, dependable, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind. I’m currently a student, which gives me a flexible schedule to help care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with you to make sure they stay comfortable, active, and well cared for while you’re away. I know pets are part of the family, and I take their safety and well-being seriously. I always follow the owner’s instructions, keep pets secure on walks, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for visits, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind.

About: Experienced working with a variety of animals- dogs, cats, chickens, goats, aquatic pets (turtles, frogs, fish, etc.), and reptiles. Experience as a vet assistant provides strong foundation in caring for medically complex and senior pets, comfortable administering medications. Currently care for my two pups and bearded dragon at home. I enjoy pet care as it helps to provide a purposeful break from school. Caring for animals feels like second nature with my schedule, and I’m able to seamlessly provide for your pets while maintaining my school schedule without any lapse in care. I provide a close eye on the animals that I care for, and due to my experience as a veterinary assistant I am able to recognize potential medical needs of your animal companions. I’m comfortable walking pets, supervising them in a fenced in yard, or any other method that your pet uses to go outside! While in your home, I maintain close proximity to your pets, and engage them in enriching activities during my time with them.

About: Pet owner, pet lover! I have been sitting for friends and family since I was a teen. I also grew up around large dogs. I adopted a staffy mix in 2014 and we had 9 great years together before she passed. I’m not ready to adopt again, so until then, I’d like to help others. I’ve also had a few cats in the past and currently have 2! They are both tolerant of dogs and if they are uncomfortable, they will typically leave the room. My friends will bring their dogs when they visit me and my cats do well. I don’t have a yard per se but there is a lot of open space for frequent walks/potty breaks. My apartment complex is very pet-friendly. I am on the 2nd floor, so there are 2 sets of steps that may make it hard for older dogs. I often do overnights and stay with pets in their own home to maximize their comfort and keep their routines intact. I’m flexible based on your individual needs. One of my interests is in animal behavior. I have read many books (my favorites are from Patricia B. McConnell) My philosophy is we are training everyday. Consistency is important to me and for them, so I will ask many questions during the meet and greet stage to understand their needs and know how to best support you both. I look forward to meeting you both! I’m currently doing odd jobs while I search for a full time job. I anticipate having a few days of availability each week where I will be home and able to support a boarder. I am in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of open space to walk, though no fenced yard. I also have 2 cats that do well tolerating dog visitors. I have room to set up a crate if they are crate-trained. But most of time can play or hangout wherever while I’m home. Pets are allowed on the furniture and will be supervised. The litter boxes are in the main living space, but are scooped immediately as to avoid unwanted “snacking”.
“Cleo did a fantastic job with twice a day drop in visits for our pup. She was attentive, prompt, communicative, and just overall incredible! Our dog requires twice a day oral medication and she can get finicky with taking it. Cleo was able to get her to take it every time. She also was very perceptive with noticing changes in our dogs eating and bathroom habits which she promptly brought to our attention. We couldn’t be happier with her service and recommend her wholeheartedly for anyone in need of help with their dogs. Will definitely be reaching out to her again next time we need to be out of town and can’t bring our pup with us!”

“Lauren provided amazing service! She was attentive, reliable, and treated my sister's cat with so much care. I felt completely at ease knowing she were in her hands. I will definitely be booking her again.”


“Sydney is so great! She was willing to stop by and meet our new puppy before sitting. She provided him with all the love and attention he needed when we weren’t home during the day. We couldn’t be more thankful to have such a nice, reliable, and trustworthy person to help us care for our little puppy!!”
“We are so thankful for the all care and time Meghan spent watching over our 3 dogs! As first time Rover users we had no idea what to expect and it was also the first time leaving our puppy for an extended period of time! We loved all the detailed notes we received and Meghan really went above and beyond, as she noticed our puppy was getting a little stir crazy and took her on a walk during one of the drop ins. We felt like we could trust Meghan’s judgement in caring for our pups, thank you SO much!!!”
About: Hey there! Are you looking for a trustworthy and reliable person to help care for your beloved companion(s)? (Of course you are, thats why we're here!) My current work leaves me with some time I love to fill with animals. I'm a remote worker central to Medford Village, which means I'm often available for last minute services. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and know more than the average bear about dog behavior. I can recognize when a canine is uncomfortable and needs extra patience or anxious and needs an outlet. I have 3 years experience teaching basic obediance on top of that. If you need a consistent walker, I can teach your dog basic walking etiquette during our walks too. I have my own dog who is extremly friendly and availiable for visits, if you would like a playmate for your pup. He's a jobial, 30lb Beagle/lab mix and up to date on all shots. No extra charge, just let me know you'd like to meet Chester too! We used to work with rescued fighting pitbulls and Chester was the dog used for socalizing. Hes very non-reactive and perfect for socalizing puppies or reactive dogs. I look to provide a simulating experience for your pet and a transparent one for you. I send lots of pics and communicate often. I look forward to connecting to see if were a good fit. I am a remote worker with a fluctuating schedule. I am able to provide last minute and consistent services to my neighbors close by M-F, weekends vary. When in your home, I always make sure everything is locked up before I leave and let you know if I see something out of sorts. When in my home, I have a bonus room set up for dogs, as well as a gated patio they can enjoy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Medford
Our normal pet sitter wasn’t available for a last minute trip and I’m so glad we found Bri! She was so sweet and attentive to our two fur babies while we were gone. She was also super flexible when we needed to make a schedule change for one of her visits. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!

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

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.
