âKim did a fantastic job. She fed creme, made sure she was healthy and even brought in packages / watered plants. Thank you Kim! You always do a fantastic job. Appreciate everything you do!â

âDiscovering Lauren to care for our boys was such a gift. Upon our initial meeting, I felt instantly comfortable with her. I suppose, more importantly, the boys were quite taken with her. Especially Graham. She was so kind as to help us out with a Chewy order that I had forgotten to reschedule. Most appreciated indeed. We've already booked with her again. Thank You Lauren:)!â


âWe have an eldery cat that needs a lot of tlc and maintenance. Tina did an excellent job of taking care of him and a few small aquarium pets for a week while we were away she sent us daily updates and went above and beyond for him. It was a great stress relief knowing he was being well taken care of. We are very appreciative of her and would highly recommend her to anyone needing her services and we will most certainly hire her again when the need arises.â

âRebecka was AMAZING! She was so thoughtful and attentive to my cat while we were out of town - she gave her so much love and playtime, gave really awesome update notes, and checked in about her bathroom habits when some anxiety kept her from using her litter box the first day (just a show of how considerate and thorough she is). She also vacuumed when my cat made a mess in the litter box- so not necessary, but really sweet! I would absolutely recommend Rebecka to anyone looking for a Rover sitter and will definitely be contacting her again for future cat sitting. Thank you!!â

âGabriela was fantastic at cat sitting! She was very invested in learning about Rhea and her personality. Gabriela did a great job completing the tasks weâd left for her and she sent detailed summaries every visit. Gabriela even was able to engage Rhea into playing more than usual by crafting a toy. Would highly recommend Gabriela for any sort of pet sitting :)â

About: Iâve taken care of neighborhood dogs and cats since I was in middle school and I love interacting with and taking care of all types of animals! Iâm currently in Graduate school for Physical Therapy and I can do any evenings, and then have more availability during the early afternoon/evening on Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays. Available all day on Saturday and Sundays! I will ensure the pet is on a leash or run while outdoors, unless stated otherwise. I can crate them as needed, and ensure whatever they need I provide!
About: Hi there! Iâm a current veterinary student at Tufts University and a former veterinary assistant with three summers of clinical experience. Iâve cared for animals of all shapes and would love to care for your pet too. Iâve grown up with big dogs so large breeds and high-energy pups donât intimidate me. To my motherâs dismay, I brought home snake while I was in middle school and have experience caring for lizards, turtles, and tortoises too. During my undergrad I spent time working on ranches and farms. And, finally, in my post grad I fostered cats of all ages. Basically, I can take care of whatever animal you have (except for maybe a tigerâŚ). Iâm trained in safely administering medications of all types (oral, topical, injectable), and am comfortable supporting pets with chronic or special needs. Iâm big on reading body language and will always respect your petâs needs, whether thatâs extra snuggles or some alone time. My goal is to ensure that both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable. Communication is huge for me. Expect plenty of photo updates while youâre away (unless you donât want that of course). I have reliable transportation and take pride in being punctual. Outside of school, Iâm fairly active. I spent my summer hiking around Colorado and am trying to maintain a frequent physical activity while in school. Iâd love to add walking your dog into my schedule. If I sound like a potential fit, feel free to reach out! I would love to meet you and your pet. I am a full-time veterinary student with classes on weekdays. Most of my required labs take place in the afternoon, and I typically have a lunch break from around 11:50-1:00. This allows me for some shorter drop-ins around lunch if you are close to the Tufts Campus. Because of my school schedule, Iâm most available in the later afternoons (anytime after 5pm), overnight, and early morning. I have some required classes that start at 8am, but our schedules are constantly changing. House sitting works especially well for me as it allows me to give your pet attention in the morning and evenings while keeping their routine consistent. (I also get a study buddy who wonât judge my old fashioned note taking). Due to currently living with a roommateâs dog, I am unable to care for pets in my home. When caring for peopleâs pets in their home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to keep things predictable and as stress-free for their pet as possible. I will make sure that I follow all house rules, keep a safe and clean environment, and give the pet lots of attention to make sure that theyâre healthy and cared for. I provide regular updates and photos so that owners know their pet is in good-hands while they are away.
âLeah was absolutely wonderful. Took great care of my cat while I was away. Played with her and sent me pictures as well. Highly recommend. The whole process couldnât have gone any smoother!â

About: Hi there! My name is Annabelle đ Iâm a huge animal lover with experience caring for all kinds of pets from dogs and cats to chickens, reptiles, rodents, fish, and more. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so Iâm comfortable with a wide range of personalities and care needs! Iâm a graduate student studying to become a Physician Assistant, so Iâm responsible, detail-oriented, and very attentive when it comes to your petâs health, safety, and happiness. You can trust that your pets will be in caring, capable hands. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, or overnight house sitting, Iâm happy to help! I have flexible hours and am willing to work with you I canât wait to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members đžđ I am currently a full-time graduate student, so I have availability after school & on the weekends! I am happy to work with you to best fit your pet's needs! Your petâs safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority. As a graduate student training to become a Physician Assistant, Iâm attentive, responsible, and detail-oriented, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands. I will follow your instructions closely, keep a watchful eye on behavior and health, and always create a calm, loving environment. I will also send as many updates as you want, including pics of us out on walks, getting pup cups, or just hanging out at the house!
âSara has been diligent and loving caring for a two cats, one that required pretty professional support following spinal surgery when we had to be away. I have already booked her for more visits. She is a joy and the cats love her.â

âLaura is wonderful! She took great care of my cat while we were gone for a week. She sent me lots of pictures each day and it was clear from the photos that my cat loved her. Ferric played with her and sat on her lap even though they just met. I highly recommend her!â

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was ten years old and adopted cats for the first time. I'll make sure your dogs are give all that they need, including all the love in the world! As I am working only part-time, I have plenty of time to care for your pets, from daily walks to overnight stays! You don't even have to drive to me; I'll come to you to make sure everything is taken care of! I am frequently active and have a flat backyard where dogs can play, and I am just one minute away from a pond which can serve as the perfect venue for a long, hearty walk! Also, my home has enough space for a dog bed and a crate, if provided, with enough space left over to play tug-of-war in the living room.
About: I've had pets my whole life, from dogs and cats to rats and mice. I used to volunteer at my local shelter, and I've worked with dogs, cats, and small animals. If your pet has any special needs, medications, or other unique requirements, I am happy to work with you to accommodate them. The health, safety, and happiness of your pet is my primary concern, and I always keep an open line of communication between myself and my clients to ensure everyone's safety and peace of mind. I also understand that sometimes plans change, and am willing to work with you if our scheduled times become inconvenient. Ultimately, I want what's best for you and your pet. I have a full time, remote job from Monday - Friday. I am able to work from alternate locations, and have access to reliable transportation. I will always confirm any special accommodations or needs before beginning. Following owner instruction is the name of my game. You know your pet(s) better than I do, after all. I am respectful of your home and always clean up after myself/the animal(s), and maintain an open line of communication at all times. I will never lie or try to cover up a mistake I've made - I truly believe that honesty is the best policy and I take your trust in me very seriously.
About: I started caring for my families pets when I was 6 years old. My neighbors were dog grooming from home, with the occasional cat grooming, so I got to get to know a lot of different things about individual breeds. My husband Evan knows how to train dogs and cats to do just about anything. He is also fluent in asl, a musician, and an artist. I love to give pets my full attention and care because it is relaxing to me. I know a lot of veterinarian technicians as well from my time in trade school. I live near Green Hill Park which is a great place to go for a stroll when the weather is nice. I know what pets are asking for and what to do if anything comes up so if you need special care for your pet they will be safe with me. I am currently available weekends and week nights. If my schedules changes I will update my profile with time off in advanced so that there are no miscommunications or cancellations. I can spend time with your pet playing in the yard or home. I walk pets as frequently as their schedule requires. Every pet has unique care needs. I love to care for pets and give them my full attention. Younger pets are full of energy and love to play so I do my best to get all their energy out so they sleep well and stay healthy. I am able to give pets medication or put them in diapers if required by the owner.
About: I've had dogs for much of my life and have experience caring for dogs both in my own home and in someone else's. I grew up with a dog, currently live with another dog, and have also provided pet-sitting for a coworker's two dogs. I once stayed at a coworker's home for an entire week to care for her two dogs while balancing full-time school and a part-time job. This experience gave me the opportunity to take responsibility for their daily routines and make sure they were well cared for while their owner was away. I'm comfortable with the everyday responsibilities of dog care, including feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine, and I believe in giving each dog the individual attention they deserve. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I would treat your dogs with the same kindness, patience, and affection that I give the pets in my own home. Whether your dog loves going for walks, playing, or simply having some company, I'm happy to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you're away! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, which allows me to accommodate different pet care needs and routines. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual feeding times, walks, playtime, and other daily activities. Whether you need occasional help, weekday visits, or more consistent care, I can be flexible and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, love, and care while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routines and provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow the owner's instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special care requirements. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, preferences, and needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and appropriate exercise and playtime. I also understand the importance of respecting my client's home. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep the home tidy, and provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands. My goal is to make both pets and their owners feel comfortable and at ease.

I specialize in providing a safe, comfortable, home-like environment for small dogs. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy time outside.

About: Hello and thank you so much for your interest in my pet care services! I absolutely love animals, and have over 8 years of professional pet care experience, both in a Veterinary Hospital and doggy daycare, boarding and grooming facility, as well as working alongside a top rated team of professional dog walkers in Central MA. Working independently allows me to give your pets the extra love and attention they deserve, without the rush, and added treats! :) ⢠I am both Pet First Aid and CPR trained and certified. ⢠Ready to give some extra love to your furry friends? Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! ⢠*Please allow me 24 hours to respond to your request, between the hours of 9am - 3pm, Monday - Thursday. I am currently available for morning, midday and evening drop-in/vacation care visits, or from 10am-3pm Tuesday-Thursday for trail walks! Do you live on a road unsafe for walking? Or do you wish your four footed friend could spend more time being a dog during the week? How about a trail walk in a local forest? Great for dogs sensitive to noise, who have extra energy, or who just love their time outdoors! Trail walks are an hourly rate and include pickup and drop off for your convenience. I hope to see you and your animal loved ones soon! After working in a pet boarding facility, I greatly appreciate getting to care for animals in their own home. It is much less stressful for the animals, and their pet parents. I have years of experience taking care of animals in an overnight boarding facility as well as in their own home through professional pet care services, and I value transparency, safety, trust and genuine care for all animals!

Another great drop-in visit from Kim taking great care of our 2 cats!! We greatly appreciate her being ready to accept this last-minute request as well!! Kim is a wonderful caring person when you leave your cats (or dogs) at home while you are away! Highly recommended!
Nicole was great with my cat Hallie! Hallie is a very sweet and loving cat, but also very skittish around strangers. In a few short days, Nicole was able to gain her trust and Hallie would hang out with her. Nicole was very quick with responding to messages, particularly when I had questions or concerns, especially when Hallie was found to have some health issues less than a week before I was going out of town. Hallie seemed much happier and more energetic when I came back than when I left. I attribute that to Nicole taking such great care of her.

Tessa checked in on my 16-year-old kitties for a week. She is kind, responsive, flexible, and a true animal-lover. It was evident in all of the visit photos that the cats were being well-loved and having a great time playing and getting pats! Tessa even went above and beyond by leaving our home spotless after some kitty pukey incidents! Lol. We could not be more pleased with the care she provided!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Shrewsbury is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $43 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 petâs 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your catsâ 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, donât 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.

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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
