“Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!”

About: Been in the animal industry for 6+ years working at a shelter, pet clinic and hospitals, vet diagnostics lab and now with lab animals. I have vast knowledge of medical care and being in the lab field, I will be attentive to my clients and can take care of any special request. I have flexible availability for drop in visits and dog walking. I work overnights, and I am also a college student so I’m focusing on mainly drop in visits and dog walking for your needs: I have availability after work (in the mornings after 9am). Weekend time varies and have more flexible availability Unavailable for sitting in my house at the moment due to personal pets. Future consideration is pending for future request after gaining more app experience/knowledge.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. I’m also a nurse so I feel very comfortable with medications and administration. Enjoy taking your furry friends on walks I have a very flexible schedule and I’m able to accommodate most times needed. I’m very active so happy to give them a good walk if needed I make sure my dogs and yours will be very safe and happy in my care. They will always be on a leash when not in the house and I take security very serious.
“Amruta was very nice and great with Scooby! She is a natural with dogs - when he met her and started jumping (still a pup learning his manners) she turned her back and immediately went into trainer mode which was great. Thanks Amruta!”

“Anna took great care of our cat Alfie over the holidays. He's a very sociable cat who asks for a lot of play and affection, and Anna made sure to give him some exercise and cuddles every day.”

“Charlene once again proved why she’s the only person we trust to care for our cat while we travel. During our recent trip to California to visit our son, she made sure our cat had consistent companionship, attention, and care throughout our time away. After years of using her services, we’ve come to rely on her not just for the essentials like food, water, and litter box maintenance, but for the genuine warmth and attentiveness she brings to every visit. Knowing our cat is in such loving hands makes it so much easier to be away and fully enjoy time with family. We can’t recommend Charlene highly enough.”

About: We are a husband and wife team, raising our own Vizsla, Bella. Between the two of us, we are always looking after our own dog and it's easy for us to provide doggy day care or overnight care in our home. We welcome well trained, friendly dogs as well as puppies. We have flexible schedules and spend a lot of time exercising our own dog. Our dog requires a lot of exercise so we often run her in our fenced in yard as well as the park near our house. We never leave our dog alone for more than 3 hours at the most. We have a very dog friendly home, and pets are free to roam about, provided they're trained and won't be destructive to furniture. We like our dogs to feel comfortable always, so they are allowed on couches, etc and we have a lot of comfy areas for them to hang.
“Dakota was great with my goldendoodle Sasha He was super responsive and accommodating, went above and beyond, and kept me up to date with every visit. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing a sitter.”

“We are so happy we booked with Kerry! It was wonderful getting to meet her during our meet and greet, and we felt comfortable leaving our Labrador Retriever, Enzo, in her care. My husband and I were away for two days, and Kerry provided drop-in visits that included walks, feeding, playtime in the backyard, fresh water, and lots of great company for Enzo while we were away. She was so attentive and responsive throughout our time away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Enzo was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciated how thoughtful and reliable Kerry was. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like their own! 🐾❤️”

I have had and taken care of all types of breeds such as labs, pits, beagles, boxers, chihuahuas , pugs, schnauzers, and more small to large. I am comfortable with all dogs. I’ve worked with reactive dogs at shelters. Being very athletic helps maintain a consistent activity level with dogs as well as making sure they are very well nourished as far as their nutrition. I used to walk neighborhood dogs often and babysit friends dogs.

“Christie was fantastic! So sweet with our three cats and took great care of them. One cat in particular has trouble with us leaving her and will hide for days afterwards if she has a bad time while we’re gone, but when we got home this cat was social and quite happy. Christie was very responsive and went above and beyond with updating us and taking pics. Would 100% recommend her! Thank you Christie!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sherborn
After bringing home our 8 week old puppy, we found out we’d have to leave him home alone in the crate at 10 weeks old. We were so worried about this, but felt INSTANT relief once we met Lindsey. Lindsey went above and beyond every single day to take care of our Remy. And he loves her sooo much. She even stayed 30 minutes extra one day so that they could sit outside while our apartment building was testing the fire alarms. She genuinely cares about animals and will do the most for your pet! I’m a teacher so I’m on summer break now, but we will 1000% be having her back in the fall to walk Remy again. Please don’t hesitate to book with Lindsey… she’s the best!

I can’t say enough great things about Livia! I needed help very last minute for my two dogs, and she stepped in without hesitation. From the very beginning, communication was quick, clear, and reassuring which made such a stressful situation so much easier. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care for their pets! 🐾
Ana is the absolute best!! She is truly phenomenal with our high energy, large dog. She is extremely loving with our pup and she treats him like her own. She is also reliable, trustworthy, and punctual. It’s great to know that our dog is in such capable and loving hands while we are away! I cannot recommend Ana highly enough.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Sherborn is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $50 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 November 2026, there are 10,743 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Sherborn. 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.
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 Sherborn 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.
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 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 Meet & Greet.
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 Sherborn with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sherborn. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
