“Amanda was an amazing sitter. She was able to follow all instructions for taking care of my pup. She also got along with my dog. She was very caring and attentive to my pup. Would highly recommend her!”

“Madison is a great dog sitter. She is very easy to communicate with and kept me up to date when playing with my puppy. She is great with my puppy who is still in the process of getting potty trained and is very energetic. I highly recommend contacting her and booking her to sit.”

About: I’m a veterinary technician and I have been in the field for 5 years now. I have been taking care of pets for years and truly enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. I would love to provide the best care for your pet! I work full time Monday-Thursday from 8-6. Fridays I have off and Saturday I work 8-2. I do have a busy schedule but will put in the effort to meet your requirements. I can drop in multiple times a day and stay at your home if needed. I work with scared/nervous pets daily and I will ensure I gain their trust and keep them comfortable at all times. I follow rules as requested and always put the pets needs first
About: I’ve had a dog pretty much my whole life, so I’m very used to taking care of them and being around them every day. I also spend a lot of time around my girlfriend’s cat and help take care of her, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats. I genuinely love animals and I’m someone you can trust to make sure your pet is well taken care of and gets plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m a commuter engineering student at Stony Brook, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and spend a lot of my week at home. Most days I’m only on campus for a few hours at a time, and I’m free all day on Saturdays. I do have an occasional longer class day, but even then I’m able to plan around your pet’s schedule. A lot of my schoolwork is done on my laptop, so when I’m pet sitting I’m happy to study and do my work from your home, which means I can spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day. I also usually go to a local gym for about an hour and a half in the evening, but otherwise I’m around and can be pretty flexible. I’ll follow whatever routine you already have for your pet so they can stay as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’m active and in good shape, so I’m more than happy to take dogs on long walks or give them as much exercise as they’re used to. I can handle feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, litter boxes, and whatever else is part of their normal routine. I’m also completely comfortable sleeping with your pets if that’s what they’re used to, or giving them their own space so it’s really whatever you and your pet are most comfortable with. I’m happy to send pictures and updates too so you know they’re doing well.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have over 12 years of professional experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities! Along with my grooming background, I have hands-on experience with pet sitting, dog walking, and administering medications. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and dogs with different temperaments, including shy, anxious, and reactive pups. As a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom myself, I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable in my care! I offer flexible availability throughout the week and on weekends for boarding and pet care. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine, including regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention. I keep my calendar updated so you’ll always know when I’m available! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! My home offers a loving environment with a fully fenced yard, plenty of room to play, and lots of attention. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats of my own, so proper introductions and compatibility are very important to me. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their space and follow their usual routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or yours, I’ll provide attentive, personalized care, regular updates, and plenty of love so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Medford
Elena was a great sitter for my cat Domino. She kept me informed of every visit and sent me pictures of Domino with every update. Poor Domino is a bit shy, so he didn’t come out much, but I know he appreciated having someone nice come over to feed him and take care of him while I was away. Elena left the apartment cleaner than when I left. Highly recommended!
Bella was a pleasure to work with. She stays in touch leading up to the visit and afterward. She also did a great job of calming one of our more skittish kitties during our interview. We love the picture updates from the visit - thank you for those. Will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Medford is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $36 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 2,915 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Medford. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Medford. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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 .
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.
