About: I’ve been loving and caring for cats and dogs for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors always rely on me to drop in, feed, and play with their pets while they're away. I have plenty of experience with all ages, from tiny puppies and kittens to sweet seniors. I love keeping pets active with fun enrichment games and can even help teach them new tricks! I know every animal has their own unique personality and needs a different approach, so I’m always happy to learn what works best for your furry friend. I’ll care for them just like they’re my own and send you plenty of cute updates along the way! Since I work a steady 9-5 schedule during the week, your pet will enjoy a wonderful, predictable routine! We kick off our days with an energetic morning walk so they can completely relax, and I love setting them up with fun puzzle toys to keep their minds active. As soon as I'm off the clock, my full attention shifts right back to them for dinner, an evening walk, and plenty of couch cuddles.When the weekend hits, I am completely free! This is when we dive into longer adventures, extra-long walks, and much more enriching activities to really spoil your furry friend. It’s a loving, consistent rhythm that keeps pets feeling safe, happy, and right at home! When I’m staying at or visiting your home, I stick closely to your pet's normal routine to keep them happy and stress-free. During the week, they’ll enjoy a predictable schedule with fun morning and evening walks, plenty of attention, and brain-boosting puzzle toys during the day. On weekends, my schedule is wide open for longer adventures and extra playtime!If your dog loves making new friends, I can also bring my own friendly dog along for supervised playdates! Of course, this is completely up to your choice and comfort level. No matter what, I focus on keeping your pet safe, loved, and properly fed while ensuring your house is totally secure. I’ll send you plenty of cute photo updates along the way so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in great hands!
“Alison does a wonderful job watching Max the cat. I have found her to be very reliable, easy to work with and coordinate care/visits, she provides thorough updates daily and takes great care of him. It's easier to be away knowing that she's around!”
“Catherine was great with our kitties. Very affectionate and kept us up to date. She also shoveled a bit to clear snow from the stairs and spread some salt for us which was much appreciated!”
“Rosemary was an amazing caretaker for our two cats while we were out of town! She was always on time for check-ins, gave detailed reports of her visit & tons of photos. She went above and beyond caring for our cats (and finding them in their many hiding spots); we couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience.”
“I HIGHLY recommend Courtney! I am very particular about my dogs, and she took such great care of them. I will absolutely book her again. One of my dogs is very skeptical about new people but loved Courtney immediately. Both my dogs take medication daily (one twice daily), and this was no problem.”
“Booked super last minute due to unexpected emergency, and she was AMAZING! Went above and beyond to take care of my little babies, cannot recommend enough. So communicative and took such great care of them (even though they’re so shy)”
“Tawny was super responsive and took great care of my babies! They went above and beyond my expectations. Even when my kitties made a bit of a mess she cleaned it right up and informed me! My shyest cat loved her to bits too so if I ever need a sitter again I'm definitely choosing her!”
About: For the past few years now I’ve been a dog sitter for my family and friends, walking, playing, feeding, and cleaning up after them I can house sit, dog walk, and do drop in visits, Any time of the day Mondays to Fridays, And weekends if needed anything works. I get to learn pets usually routine. How many times a day to walk them, when and how to feed them, and their bed time.
“Caroline was so great, Harvey absolutely loves her! From the second she introduced herself to him, he took to her. He is normally anxious and a little kiddish but Caroline did such an amazing job making him feel comfortable. Absolutely will be hoping to use her again!”
“Amanda was a great find for me! My 15 year old Puggle has a lot of health issues and needs a lot of care. Amanda has given me the opportunity to get out without worrying about him. She is reliable and very knowledgeable. Her love for animals is very apparent. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
About: Hi Pet Parents! 🐾 please read I bring over 6 years of pet care experience from Wag and have been on Rover for about a year where I built long term relationships with pups (and their humans!) through a ton of walks, drop-ins and sittings! ✨ What sets me apart? - Consistency & reliability: I treat your pets and your home with the same care I’d want for my own. - Experience with all kinds of dogs: from shy rescues to energetic puppies to senior pups or disabled dogs who need gentler attention and care - Communication: I keep you in the loop with updates, photos and videos so you can relax knowing your best friend is happy and safe. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone and I don’t take that lightly. Whether it’s a quick walk, an overnight stay or daily drop ins, I’m here to make sure your pets feel loved and cared for while you’re away. - I know a lot of you are parents and / or are very busy if you need more assistance such as picking your dog up from doggy day care, grooming appointments or simply just cleaning up the house please let me know and we can discuss further Can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐶🐾 I have the flexibility to adapt to your pet’s specific routine and needs, so they get consistency and attention just like they would if you were home. When I care for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. - Walks & exercise: I match your dog’s pace and energy level whether that’s a quick potty break, a long walk playtime. - Drop-ins: I handle feeding, fresh water, litter or potty breaks and always make time for playtime and affection so your pet feels loved, not just “checked on.” - Sitting: I provide companionship, stick to your pet’s daily schedule and make sure your home is respected and cared for while you’re away. I completely understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home. For extra peace of mind, I always encourage pet parents to use cameras if they’d like because that way you can see your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. I also send regular updates, photos and videos so you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands. Just for extra reassurance, I don’t invite people into your home. The only time I ever have was for a family I’d been sitting for over many years, and I made sure to ask first—I only had my dad over for dinner because it was Thanksgiving during that stay. Aside from that, I would never invite friends or anyone else over, as I personally find that disrespectful.
“Natalie took wonderful care of our kitty Leila. She sent so many pictures during her visits and we enjoyed sitting down and scrolling through them every night. There’s nothing like peace of mind that your baby is happy and healthy while you’re away! Thank you Natalie!!”
“Kristis is very professional, knowledgeable, easy to work with and with strong communication skills. She is super reliable. Because Kristin is super reliable, we trust her judgment. We highly recommend Kristin and any pet would be so lucky to meet her. We as her client are so happy and impressed with her excellent services and professionalism”

This was our second time hiring Carly and we couldn’t be happier with her! She took such great care of our two girls while we were away for one week. It gave us such peace of mind to be able to keep our cats home instead of boarding them, and to have someone like Carly to keep an eye on the house and report anything unusual. I’m sure our cats are looking forward to seeing her again n
Rosemary watched our cat, Izzie while we were away for 4 days. She was very attentive and communicative with us, spoiled Izzie with lots of treats, brushes and playtime, and even helped us out by bringing in a package. We came home to a happy cat and a clean house. Would absolutely recommend!
Thanks Haley for taking such good care of our cat while we were gone. Haley sent photos every day, when we got home, we saw she even washed our cats foot bowl, no litter left in the house. My daughter was so happy to see our cat picture every day, it made her day.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in North Reading on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 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 cat, 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.

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.
